Hopefully you can keep your smaller units for those back off the grid places you like so well... Nothing wrong with having both unless going full time does away with your home base idea where you can keep extra things stored...
I never made it to the big items but I imagine I would not be able to keep up with maintenance and added costs involved with those hugh machines...
We are in our mid 70s now and still like the RV CAMPING idea verses the RV TRAVELING idea... This keeps up for the most part within 200 miles or so around our home base with maybe a couple of longer trips down to the Myrtle Beach and Gatlinburg areas to visit with family...
My younger sister and her hubby had the hugh 5th wheel and traveled all over with it so I got to hear about all of the expenses involved keeping all of that up in good shape. Then they started staying in West banks of FLA for several months a year and finally got rid of the 5th wheel and got a winter home in FLA. Now they drive down and spend the winter months there in the FLA home...
If you gots the resources go far it haha... We are back to tent camping this season until we find some good prices of our battery bank replacement costs. Kinda looking forward to that haha...
Thats what we lived for back in the 60s and 70s especially when we was living in the Arizona area going to the high country alot there...
Nothing wrong with this setup for sure hehe...
